Equipment

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Sausage Casing removed if using links, crumbled or sliced as preferred.
  • 1 pound Baby Creamer Potatoes Halved.
  • 2 cups Green Beans Trimmed and cut into 1–2 inch pieces.
  • 1 medium Onion Diced.
  • 2 cloves Garlic Minced.
  • 1 cup Chicken Broth Low-sodium preferred.
  • 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Pepper
  • 1-2 tablespoons Olive Oil For drizzling.

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a large baking dish or casserole pan.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add the sausage. Cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until well browned and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes.
  • Push the sausage to the side and add the diced onion to the skillet (add a splash of olive oil if the pan is dry). Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3–4 minutes.
  • Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30–60 seconds until fragrant. Remove the skillet from heat.
  • In the prepared baking dish, combine the halved creamer potatoes and trimmed green beans in an even layer.
  • Add the cooked sausage, onion, and garlic mixture on top of the vegetables and toss gently to distribute.
  • Pour the chicken broth evenly over the mixture, then sprinkle the Italian seasoning, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Drizzle the top lightly with olive oil to help with browning and moisture.
  • Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes to allow the potatoes to start softening.
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork and the top has a little color.
  • Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving warm.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3–4 days in the fridge. This casserole freezes well. Cool completely then freeze in a sealed container for up to 2 months.
